I have played millions of rounds of 21. I started sneaking into the gambling halls when I was 16. I have gambled on online vingt-et-un, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short time. With all that said I have still spent a lot of bankroll at 21. The casinos have made it almost impossible to defeat the casino.
I still enjoy the game and play on a regular basis. Over the years I have bet on a variation of twenty-one called "The Take it Leave it Method". You won’t get rich with this method or defeat the house, however you will have an abundance of fun. This tactic is based on the idea that 21 appears to be a match of runs. When you are hot your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!
I play basic strategy blackjack. When I don’t win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the subsequent hand. If I don’t win again I wager the table minimum on the next hand again etc. Once I profit I take the payout paid to me and I bet the initial wager again. If I win this hand I then keep in play the winnings paid to me and now have double my original wager on the table. If I succeed again I take the payout paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original bet. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I do not win I lower the wager back down to the original value.
I am very disciplined and do not back out. It gets very fun at times. If you win a few hands in sequence your wagers go up very fast. Before you know it you are gambling $100-200/ hand. I have had awesome runs a few times now. I departed a $5 table at the Paris a few years back with $750 after 60 mins using this tactic! And a couple of days ago in Las Vegas I left a table with $1200!
You have to comprehend that you can give up much faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more enjoyable. And you will be astonished at the runs you see betting this way. Below is a guide of what you would wager if you continue winning at a 5 dollar table.

It is hard to go on a run this long, but it does happen. And when it does you mustn’t alter and drop your wager or the end result will not be the same.
